Another chapter focuses on community wellness, and includes several types of community wellness projects. The 'Future is the Internet' chapter introduces tele-health and provides instructions for student creation of a 'holistic physical therapy website.' Woven throughout the textbook are case scenarios, images of mock patients, and lots of color to engage the reader and enhance the learning experience.
